Friends of Nature House in Portugal

Casa Antiga is the first official Friends of Nature House in Portugal. The Friends of Nature House is located on the estate of Quinta do Pomarinho in the province Alto Alentejo Portugal close to the medieval village of Castelo de Vide. The former farmhouse can accommodate 4 to 10 people.

The Friends of Nature House is set up so that it can serve many different functions. You can rent the whole Friends of Nature House with your family, friends, or your own walking group. However, it is also possible to stay at the Friends of Nature House in one or more Bed and Breakfast rooms with just your partner or three or more people.

From the Friends of Nature House you can walk together with a friend or partner or with your kids. You can also put together your own walking group in order to explore the Alto Alentejo region and natural park Serra de São Mamede together. After walking, cycling, or doing any other activities you can enjoy relaxing at the Friends of Nature House.

The 62-acre terrain of the quinta consists of meadows, olive trees, cork oaks, and fruit orchards with fits, apples, pears, citruses, apricots, and pomegranates. On the terrain you will also find a small swimming pool and a stream that flows into a lake that you can go to find some refreshment.
